Trusted non-slip bath coating in Hillmoor

Work for landlords and builders

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

About our non-slip bath coating in Hillmoor

It’s popular with homes with older or less mobile people, holiday lets and families. The coating is clear and textured, so it shows only as a slightly matt area where you stand. We regularly repair shower trays, wet room floors (ask us) and resurfaced baths, and people most frequently call us about worn-out textured areas and bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten.

A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover. Clean with a soft brush and a mild cleaner. Avoid scourers on the coating.

Should you replace it?

Instead, you could go for replacing the bath or tray with a textured one, or a bath mat that needs lifting and cleaning. A non-slip coating adds grip to the bath you have. What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed price from your photos, so you know the cost before you book.

What you get with us

  • Same prices wherever you are
  • Fixed prices from your photos
  • No need to remove anything
  • We will tell you if it’s not worth repairing

When we’d advise against a repair

Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:

  • Surfaces that are already damaged or peeling (these need repairing first)
  • Textured areas still wet or recently cleaned with oily products
  • Outdoor surfaces

If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think before you book.

Materials we repair

  • Acrylic baths
  • Enamelled baths
  • Shower trays
  • Resurfaced baths
  • Wet room floors (ask us)

What affects the price in Hillmoor

There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price is based on:

  • Doing more than one item at once
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • The material and finish
  • How many areas need work

Compared with replacing, repairing typically costs far less, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.

Send photos for a quote

Two or three clear photos are normally enough. Try to include:

  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection

Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them to us with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed price back. There’s no charge for the quote and no obligation.

What we are called out for in Hillmoor

Baths and trays are made smooth so they’re easy to clean, yet wet, soapy surfaces are slippery. Textured areas on older baths wear smooth too.

Look out for these signs:

  • A bath or tray that is slippery when wet
  • Worn-out textured areas
  • Bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten
  • Resurfaced baths that are now too smooth

Before you book anyone

  • A fixed price, and whether VAT is included
  • What happens if they find more damage
  • How your room will be protected
  • Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price

Our hiring checklist

DIY kit or professional repair?

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

The process

Here’s how a visit normally runs: we arrive on time, sheet and mask the area around the job, carry out the work and clear up. Allow a morning or an afternoon from start to finish. Before leaving, we tell you how long to leave it and how to care for it.

  1. We start by degreasing the area where you stand.
  2. The area to be treated is masked out.
  3. We apply the clear textured coating.
  4. We lift the masking for a clean edge.
  5. The coating is left to cure before use, usually overnight.

Before we arrive

  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Clear the area around the damage
